Vintage Brass Yellow Glass Ceiling Light | Semi Flush Mount In Two Warm Toned Metal Finishes

Amber glass is the warmest tint available and it does something no bulb can. The colour sits in the shade itself, so every bulb put into the fitting comes out warm, which means the light stays flattering to timber, skin and food regardless of whatever cheap cool white bulb ends up in it three years from now when the original one finally fails and gets replaced in a hurry.

Brass is the right frame for that. Warm metal against warm glass keeps the whole fitting consistent rather than fighting itself, and brass patinas over years instead of chipping like a sprayed finish. The electroplated copper version is the cooler and more contemporary of the two, and it reads slightly more graphic against pale plaster in a modern room.

Buy it now for a bedroom, a living room or a study with a standard or lower ceiling, since at twenty eight centimetres wide by twenty five high the semi flush format works where a pendant would hang too low. It takes one E26 bulb which is not included, so an LED, an incandescent or a fluorescent bulb will all work in it. This is a hardwired fixture and should be fitted by a qualified electrician.
